The Yankees planned for Carl Pavano and Kei Igawa to hold down spots in their
rotation this season. Yesterday, both were making plans to leave town.

洋基原本計畫讓卡帕瓦諾和井川慶在本季的先發輪值。而昨天這兩人的卻有離開紐約市區
的打算。

Pavano will meet tomorrow with Lewis Yocum, the team doctor for the Los
Angeles Angels, who will be the fourth doctor to examine his troublesome
right elbow. Igawa was optioned to Class A Tampa, where he will work on his
mechanics while Darrell Rasner, the starter who won on Sunday, takes his spot.

帕瓦諾明天將去見Lewis Yocum，他也是洛杉磯天使的隊醫，也是第四個檢查他麻煩的右
手肘的醫生。井川則選擇下放至Tampa 1A，以調整他投球的姿勢，而星期四拿到勝投的
Darrell Rasner則取代了他的輪值的位置。

Many in the organization believe Pavano wants to have reconstructive surgery
even though his elbow may not be damaged enough to require it. Pavano said he
would rather not, though he seems resigned to it.

即使帕瓦諾他的手肘可能還沒傷到需要重建手術的程度，(但依他受傷的慣例)許多洋基球
團的人員相信帕瓦諾需要這個手術。帕瓦諾說他希望不要，雖然他似乎心裡有數(坐著數
錢更好)。


“I would not like to have the surgery, but if I have professionals and that’
s what they do, they make these decisions,” Pavano said. “And if it’s a
decision that they think is going to get my elbow better, that’s what I need
to do.”

"我不想要動這個手術，但是我有一些專業人員，他們會評估然後作決定(什麼時候休息
數錢最好)。"帕瓦諾說:"而且假如他們認為動手術對我的手肘比較有利，我還是必須服
從這個決定(，反正我也習慣了)。"


When Pavano saw Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Ala., he was found to have
some ligament damage, as many pitchers do. But the Yankees have not received
a conclusive diagnosis yet, despite sending Pavano to their doctor, Stuart
Hershon, and the Mets’ team doctor, David Altchek.

當帕瓦諾在阿拉巴馬州伯明罕市看James Andrews醫生時，就發現他就像很多投手有一些
韌帶的傷害。雖然帕瓦諾已經看過洋基的隊醫，Stuart Hershon以及大都會隊的隊醫
David Altchek，但是洋基隊還沒有拿到決定性的診斷。

Pavano has not pitched since April 9, but the Yankees seem to believe he may
be able to pitch through the pain.

帕瓦諾在四月九日後就沒有上場投球了，但是洋基似乎相信他能夠渡過傷痛再上場投球。
(還沒死心就對了)

“Clearly, I want to make sure we have a really accurate reading on all of
this,” General Manager Brian Cashman said. “All the best doctors, I’m
trying to pull in on this.”

"顯然地，我想確認我們是真正準確閱讀所有的診斷結果，"總經理Brian Cashman說: "
所有最好的醫生，我都設法拉進來好好診斷看看(這小子到底是真傷還是假傷)。"

The procedure under consideration is Tommy John surgery, in which an elbow
ligament is replaced by another ligament in the body. It requires at least 12
months of recovery and would essentially end Pavano’s tenure with the
Yankees, who are paying him through 2008 on a four-year, $39.95 million
contract.

目前列入考慮的處理是Tommy John手術，就是把手肘的韌帶用身上另一條韌帶加以取代。
這個手術需要至少12個月的復元期，而這結果將實質結束帕瓦諾與洋基隊的合約期，洋
基付給這小子到2008，四年三千九百九十五萬元的合約。

“You think I’m fighting to have that done?” Pavano said. “Altchek says
there’s a tear in there.”

"你想我一直努力讓事情有個結果?(真的嗎?)"帕瓦諾說: "大都會隊醫Altchek說手肘這
兒有個撕裂傷。"

Asked if Pavano would make the decision on whether to have surgery, Cashman
said, “No,” but said he would not elaborate until he spoke with Yocum.

詢問是否帕瓦諾將決定是否要作手術，現金人說:"不，" 但是在他和Yocum談論前他拒絕
作進一步的說明。

Igawa also cost the Yankees dearly: $46 million, including a $26 million fee
to the Hanshin Tigers for his negotiating rights last winter. Igawa then
signed a five-year, $20 million contract.

井川宅男也花了洋基一大筆的錢: 四千六百萬，包括去年冬天付給阪神虎隊兩千六百萬談
判權的費用。然後洋基和井川慶簽了五年兩千萬的合約。

Igawa is second on the Yankees’ staff in innings, but not all of them have
been sharp. In six games, he is 2-1 with a 7.63 earned run average. Three
games have been good, and three have not. Manager Joe Torre said that when
Igawa’s pitches miss their location, they miss by feet.

井川在洋基投手群中投球局數排名第二，但是投球的內容並不是都很好看。在他六場的投
球中，拿到2勝1敗，7.64的自責失分率。三場比賽投得不錯，另三場則投得很糟。總教練
Joe Torre說當井川失去控球時，球位置的差距有幾尺之遠。

“I know the Yankees — if you don’t show the results here, pitching in the
major leagues, they demote,” Igawa said through an interpreter. “I knew
that before I signed with this team.”

"我瞭解洋基 － 假如你沒法在大聯盟投球顯露好的成績，就會被下放，" 井川透過翻譯
說："這是我和洋基簽約前就知道的。"

The Yankees have sent other struggling pitchers to Tampa to work with an
instructor, usually Billy Connors, who tried to help Jose Contreras and
others. Now the instructors Nardi Contreras and Gil Patterson, former
pitching coaches in the majors, are charged with fixing Igawa.

洋基也送其他沒好表現掙扎中的投手到Tampa和指導教練在一起，通常是Billy Connors,
他過去也幫助過Jose Contreras和其他的投手。現在指導教練是兩位前大聯盟的投手教練
Nardi Contreras和Gil Patterson，負責修正井川的投球動作。

“We’re going to start out with his balance point,” Nardi Contreras said. “
He’s got the stuff to pitch here in the big leagues.”

"我們將從他的平衡點進行調整，" Nardi Contreas說: "他有足夠在大聯盟投球的球威。"

If a pitcher is not balanced, Contreras said, he tends to get under the ball
when he throws, leaving pitches high in the strike zone. Igawa does not throw
hard enough to survive that way, at least in the majors.

假如一個投手無法取得平衡，Contreras說，投球時會傾向於投出壞球，讓球投出高出好
球帶。用這種方式投球讓井川無法立足，至少在大聯盟是這樣。


“The hitters here are the best in the world,” Contreras said. “They’re
bigger, stronger. Mistakes he can probably get away with in Japan, he’s not
going to get away with here.”

"這裡有的是全世界最好的打擊手，" Contreras說: "他們炮管更大，更厲害。失投球在
日本可能讓他僥倖逃過，但在這裡是沒法免於被轟。"

The Yankees have no scheduled games for Igawa, just sessions with the
coaches. Contreras said he had compiled videos of successful major league
left-handers like Mark Buehrle and Tom Glavine to show Igawa, who has many
adjustments to make.

洋基對井川慶沒有排定預定上場的比賽，只是讓他與教練們討論。Contreras說他收集了
一些大聯盟成功的左投手的錄影，包括Mark Buehrle和Tom Glavine讓井川慶看看(宅男說
有沒有簽名!!!)，井川慶有很多需要調整的地方。

“It’s not only the baseball, but it’s also the way my lifestyle has
changed completely,” he said. “The routine, the number of days between
pitching, has changed completely. It’s everything. When I go to the minors, I
’ll do my best to adjust and get back up.”

"不只是棒球的部份，也包括我的生活型態都完全改變，"他說: "輪值的時間，投球後休息
的天數完全改變。每件事都變了。當我去小聯盟時，我會儘力去調整，然後再回來。"

PROCTOR IS SUSPENDED Scott Proctor led the majors in relief innings last
season, when Joe Torre used him 83 times. Perhaps the only way for Proctor to
get a break is to be suspended by Major League Baseball, and that happened
yesterday.

天天P的禁賽
Scott Proctor上一季後援的局數領先全大聯盟，Joe Torre用了他83次的後援。或許唯一
他天天P得到休息的方式就是被大聯盟決定禁賽，昨天就發生了。

“I should have thought of that last year,” Proctor said yesterday,
jokingly, after he was suspended for four games and fined $1,500 for throwing
behind Seattle’s Yuniesky Betancourt on Sunday.

"我去年應該想過這件事，" Proctor幽默地說，在他被判定禁賽四場罰款一千五百元，因
為星期日對水手隊的Yuniesky Betancourt投出觸身球。

Proctor appealed the suspension and was eligible for last night’s game.
Torre, who was automatically suspended for the game, said he did not question
Proctor, even though the matter seemed to be resolved when Seattle’s Jarrod
Washburn hit Josh Phelps, who had made a hard slide on catcher Kenji Johjima.

Proctor對此禁賽提出上訴，所以昨晚的比賽仍可上場。Torre則自動從這場比賽禁賽，說
他不會質疑天天P，即使事情起因似乎是水手隊的Jarrod Washburn對Josh Phelps投出觸身
球，因為Phelps回本壘時對著水手捕手城島健司用力的滑壘。

“Scotty’s heart was in the right place,” Torre said. “It’s hard for me
to get angry with someone who felt he was protecting his people, whether it
was the right or wrong thing to do.”

"Scotty的心是在正確的一邊的，" Torre說: "對我來說是很難對一些想要保自己隊員的
人生氣的，不管這麼作是對還是錯的。"

THE TORRE-CLEMENS FACTOR When George Steinbrenner, the Yankees’ principal
owner, considered firing Joe Torre at the end of April, General Manager Brian
Cashman said he gave him a warning: If you fire Torre, you will lose any
chance to sign Roger Clemens.

Torre-Clemens的因素
當大老闆George Steinbrenner，在考慮在四月結束時將Joe Torre解雇。總經理Brian
Cashman說給了老闆一個警告：假如你將Torre解雇，你將會失掉任何可以簽下Roger
Clemens的機會。

“It certainly came up in my talks with ownership,” Cashman said. “I
thought if Joe Torre wasn’t here, Roger wouldn’t want to be here either. I
don’t believe Roger would have come here in a circumstance if we were
struggling and had a manager change.”

"這件事在我和老闆們談話時確實被提起過，"Cashman說: "我想假如Joe Torre不在這兒，
Roger也不會想來這兒。我不相信假如我們在為戰績苦苦掙扎同時換了個總教練時，在這種
氣氛下Roger會想來這兒。"

Cashman was right. Clemens told ESPN yesterday that Torre was essential to
his return.

現金人是對的。Clemens昨天告訴ESPN說，Torre對於他回歸洋基占了很重要的地位。

“I know I wouldn’t be playing here in New York,” Clemens said. “If Joe
was let go, there would have been no reason.”

"我知道我將不會在紐約投球，" Clemens說："假如Torre離開，是沒任何理由我會回到
洋基隊。"

STUDENT STILL THE STUDENT When Chien-Ming Wang was growing up in Taiwan, the
one American pitcher he most looked up to was Roger Clemens. Perhaps, a
reporter suggested, Wang could teach Clemens how to throw his trademark
sinker. Wang smiled and laughed.

學生仍然是學生

當王建民在台灣成長的過程中，他最崇拜的一個美國的投手就是Roger Clemens。或許，
一個(腦殘的)記者建議，王建民可以教Clemens如何投他的註冊商標，伸卡球。王建民微
笑然後笑著說:


“No,” Wang said. “He’s better than me.”

"不不，"王建民說："阿...就...他比我更強啦...。"
